CasparCG to Node interface


This project is early in development and API may change. The query, playout, data and template commands are mostly finished and I will be adding more as I need them. If you need something that is missing add an issue.

For now docs are in the source only. I will be moving them to github pages at some point.

Road Map

0.1 - Implement the entire AMCP Protocol
0.2 - First stable release
0.3 - Add events for all commands and channel/layer status by polling
0.4 - Stable release

Install

npm install caspar-cg

Usage Example

var CasparCG = require("caspar-cg");

ccg = new CasparCG("localhost", 5250);
ccg.connect(function () {
ccg.info(function (err, serverInfo) {
console.log(serverInfo);
});

ccg.play("1-1", "AMB");

setTimeout(function () {
ccg.clear("1");
ccg.disconnect();
}, 10 * 1000);
});

ccg.on("connected", function () {
console.log("Connected");
});
